The step by step images show how a simple dot rangoli can be made very beautiful by adding patterns in the gaps.  This is one of the main aspects - try to have minimum space , fill with patterns - only thing is that all patterns should match each other - should be congruous

This is a tricky rangoli , hence I have included step by step images also.  If the patterns are drawn at a single stretch , the result will be beautiful without joints in the lines

The dot pattern is 9 by 5 placed horizontally.  Actually I wanted to draw a rangoli with 9 by dots placed vertically.   After placing the dots ( probably absent minded ) I realised that I had placed them as a horizontal grid.  So I decided to create a muggu and the result is seen in the images !!

 This is a bigger version of a kolam drawn with eleven dots.  An old and traditional kolam that can be drawn for Ugadi, New Year or Sankranthi .  Though it is a big kolam it is quite simple.  To get an attractive rangoli , we should ensure that the curved lines drawn connecting the dots should be smooth and without joints i.e they should  be drawn in a single stretch.  The secrets for achieving these are concentration and practice .
